A RICH HISTORY

EIKEHOF FARM was founded during the height of the DUTCH EAST INDIA TRADING COMPANY in 1791

In 1841, J. De Vos and his family established their home on the farmstead, completing construction of the Manor house. Over the years, Eikehof Farm underwent several changes in ownership, remaining a private residence until 2020, when it opened to the public as a wedding venue and guest farm.
